Set up two equations.
s + 12 = l , s + l = 74 (these equations represent the problem)
s + (s + 12) = 74 plug in "l" to the second equation.
2s + 12 = 74 combine like terms.
2s + 12 - 12 = 74 - 12 subtract to isolate the variable
2/2s = 62/2 divide to isolate the variable.
s = 31. This means the smaller number is 31.
31 + 12 = 43. since the larger number is 12 more than the smaller, add 12.
l = 43 the larger number has a value of 43.
small number = 31
larger number = 43

Answer: 3 packets
12/2 = 6 seeds per packets
18/6 = 3 packets
X-0.075x=7400
Solve for x
0.925x=7400
x=7,400÷0.925
X=8,000
Answer:
Step-by-step explanations:
10x - 2x
8x
1. You would set them up:46+7
2. Next you would do 6+7 which equals 13
3. You would then bring down the 4
4. And last you get the answer:53
Hope this helped you!
